Prudentius' Hymns for Hours and Seasons
Angebote / Angebote:
Combining faithfulness to the Latin with sensitivity to Prudentius¿ poetic qualities, Nicholas Richardson offers a precise yet creative verse translation of a major work by one of the most important Christian Latin poets of late antiquity. Prudentius¿ Hymns for Hours and Seasons provides readers with a wealth of material, which sets the life and output of this poet in its historical, religious and literary context, outlines manuscript and editorial details, discusses metrics and Latinity, and also gives a sense of the individual hymns of the Cathemerinon. The notes together with the introduction and text provide a comprehensive volume on one of the key works of later Latin poetry.
